State government; creating the Oklahoma State Protection from Terrorist Organizations Act. Effective date.

SB 1784 creates the Oklahoma State Protection from Terrorist Organizations Act, prohibiting state agencies from contracting with or granting funds to organizations designated as terrorist groups. It allows the Governor to designate such groups based on recommendations from safety agencies, barring them from holding state property or receiving state contracts. The law specifies that designations must be religion- and viewpoint-neutral, protecting peaceful advocacy while targeting organizations providing material support for terrorism. Violations can be addressed through civil actions by the Attorney General, with designated entities able to petition for reconsideration after 24 months.
